The Victorian Illustrated Shakespeare Colouring Book 2 features all 18 illustrations from John G. Murdoch’s illustrated edition from 1880. This was the first illustrated Shakespeare to comprehensively use colour (chromo-lithography) on a set of original illustrations ‘designed expressly’ for an edition. All colour has been removed from the illustrations so you can enjoy a mindful hour colouring them in. You can explore Murdoch’s edition here
